Highway management to return to State - Di Maio

M5S leader says he and Salvini agree on this issue

(ANSA) - Rome, September 10 - Deputy Premier and Labour and
Industry Minister Luigi Di Maio said Monday that control of
Italy's motorways is set to go back into public hands after last
month's bridge-collapse disaster in Genoa in which 43 people
died.
The government has said it intends to annul the concession of
highways company Autostrade per l'Italia following the disaster.
"There are two possibilities if we discuss reissuing the
highways tenders," 5-Star Movement (M5S) leader Di Maio told La7
television.
"Either they go back to Autostrade and we have the work of
the madmen or we let ourselves be colonized by a foreign
concessionary.
"So they have to return to the State. Do we want to call it
public management instead of nationalization?".
Di Maio also said that he and Interior Minister Matteo
Salvini, who is also a deputy premier and leader of the
rightwing League party, the M5S's coalition ally, agreed on this
issue.
